PSA: 1966 Pelham Blue MMSG at DGS


Recommended Posts

Perhaps the finest color ever to grace a guitar. Faded Pelham Blue.  I must admit that I never realized until I looked at the Dave's ad that the Melody Makers only had 19 frets.

My '65 has 22 frets, and the controls on the pickguard.  Hmm.

More - this site http://uniqueguitar.blogspot.com/2011/02/gibson-melody-maker.html (no idea as to the authoritativeness of it) says that as of '66 Gibson changed to the SG shape, and offered a 3/4 size one.  Maybe that's what DGS has?

And Pelham Blue was not a MM custom color in '66-the guitars were only offered in PB and Red. In '67 they added Burgundy Mist to the MMs.
